EXPLANATORY NOTE:
DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 amends the Registration Statement on
Form S-3, Registration No. 333-01081 (the "Original Registration Statement"), of
United Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), which was filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and became effective on February 20,
1996. The Registration Statement registered 150,000 shares of the Company's
common stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Common Stock"), for sale pursuant to
the United Bancorp, Inc. Dividend Reinvestment Plan.
On August 17, 2006, the Company filed a Registration Statement with the
Commission on Form S-3 registering 250,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance
under the Company's new Dividend Reinvestment and Optional Cash Purchase Plan.
Consequently, the offering pursuant to the Original Registration Statement has
been terminated. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in the
Original Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a
post-effective amendment, any of the securities which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration the
44,810 shares of Common Stock registered, but unsold, under the Original
Registration Statement.
